On Saturday, August 5th, 2023, AYLUS Pearland hosted a garage sale at Silverlake Scofield community, Pearland from 7-11:30am. Starting at 6:30 am, parents and members set up advertisement signs in the community and arranged sale items. People started lining up at the driveway at 7:00 AM, while AYLUS volunteers helped them select items and calculate costs. We have a large variety of items, many customers called their relatives to join them in buying bicycles, clothes, shoes, toys, curtains, beach shorts, lunch bags, hiking bags, school supplier, chairs and camping equipment too. At around 11am, the volunteers started cleaning up by dividing the unsold items into two categories: new items that will be saved for future online sales and others that were packed in boxes that will be donated to churches in Mexico.
The total funds raised from this event, including the online and onsite presale, was$900, All the funds will be used to support a variety of high school extracurricular activities through a formal AYLUS Pearland fund application and approval procedure that was initiated this year.
